St. Patrick’s Day in Dublin from Home

March 17, 2021

St. Patrick’s Day celebration could not be better than taking a virtual trip to one of my most favorite cities to visit: Dublin in Ireland. I have visited it a number of times and never get tired of it.

As we all know and eagerly await the Month of March better known as the St. Patrick’s Day festivity, celebrated this year in the comfort of your home without getting on the plane.

Surprise your family with a refreshing supply of Guinness Irish stout, and plenty of it. Feeling patriotic? There is a number of excellent American stouts on the market, such as North Coast’s Old #38 Stout, better known as the “Skunk Train,” Sierra Nevada Stout and San Quentin Breakout Stout.

Add a few delicious plates of slow cooked braised beef stew with carrots, onions and potatoes – and your St. Patrick’s Day will be perfect.

Wear a “Kiss me, I am Irish” t-shirt  and get all the adoration, hugs and love from the family around you.

And remember: you don’t have to be Irish to have fun on St. Paddy’s Day.

See you next March 2022 in Dublin, Ireland!
